"I request permanent reassignment to the Gallic frontier. Nay, I demand reassignment. Perhaps it is improper to say so, but I refuse to fight against the Greeks or Macedonians any more. Give my command to another, for I cannot, I will not, lead an army into battle against a civilized nation so long as the Gauls survive. I am not the young man I once was, but I swear before Jupiter Optimus Maximus that I shall see a world without Gauls before I take my final breath."

Bus - but hopefully when I pass my driving test in the next couple months, I will be driving. To college though, not work :p
GARCIN: I "dreamt," you say. It was no dream. When I chose the hardest path, I made my choice deliberately. A man is what he wills himself to be.
INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

I take the bus to school, walk back. It's about two miles.

Bus then metro train. The metro train isn't really a subway because sometimes it runs above ground and sometimes it doesn't.
I enjoy commuting because I live at one end of the line and work near the other end I can always get a seat. I reread the entire Aubrey/Maturin series by Patrick O'Brian, Beowolf, various other books and now I'm working on Pride and Prejudice.

Bus to school. I live 3 miles away, but the bus ride takes about 10 minutes. Then I walk home from the bus stop with some friends. When the sun's shining, and it's hot enough to take off your blazer and roll up your sleeves (which I always do in summer term - reminds me it's summer), and you've finished your exams, ah, happy days...
10 min ride on the metro train - always a good opportunity to read some articles in a newsmagazine - I used to have a longer train ride when we lived further outside of Frankfurt (the good thing about that was that I had more time for reading books)
Car. Instead of 30 miles like Malcolm.B.H, its 30.5Km here.Which means a shorter distance

My car got stolen at Christmas of all times .So I bought myself a Bike ,and I'm a born again cyclist.
Still got to get around to buying a new car ,but as for getting to and from work ,i've decided to stick with the bike .At least while the weathers good.
That's it.
By bike 12 km to school and 7 km to work.
I just hate the bus. I can ride my bike faster than the bus.
Am driven to school Monday-Wednesday and Friday and cycle home. Drive back and forth on Thursdays. (I begin at the third periods on thursdays, so I have time to drop my mother of at her job and borrow the car.)

Bus for me, to university that is. To be honest i've forgotten what work is like this loan thingy really does inspire laziness. Tho i can't brag it'll all be over in 4 weeks
50 minutes in the traffic jam every morning.
After work, I'm back home in less than 30 minutes. I guess everyone works longer than I do
Either car or tram, depending on whether I have to go somewhere later or not.
